Trying a New Income Stream

Filed under: What's New! — Ruth @ 11:46 am

I’m testing a new income stream as of this week. Back in May I read an interesting and detailed article about one man’s experience in doing paid online surveys for income. Apparently it is possible to make easily $50-75 an hour. I knew there was no point in trying that out while I was moving so I set that information aside. But last week I researched it, and discovered that it is possible to get into this work for free, but I would need to clear at least one hour a day for this.

Hmm…! So I did spend time over the weekend considering and praying about this, and finally decided to pledge myself to get to bed by midnight each night (instead of 1 am), so as to really get up when my alarm goes at 6 and then have time for bath and devotions by 8 am.

I don’t want to give up my Bible study and devotional time, so I’ve added some incentive by vowing that if I don’t get that done by 8 am, I can’t do surveys over my breakfast from 8-9 am.

So far I’ve only been signing up yesterday and this morning, but I did snitch a few extra minutes from writing this RoseBouquet to do my first survey.

So far no fast and large deposits to my PayPal account yet, and I suspect I’ll be on a learning curve for a while yet. So I won’t start raving about this until I can truthfully say it works and pays well. If you want to see how it goes for me, watch this spot over the next few weeks. :)

Something else I’m starting as I buckle down to a more intense business routine, is to give at least one hour each morning (well, this RoseBouquet preempts that on Tuesdays) in promoting my websites, and products. I discovered last week that Craigslist.org is suppose to be a very productive place to place ads, and that for free. I also can do that at Adlandpro where I have a membership. It’s a matter of writing up good ads and then posting them doggedly at regular intervals.

Actually, if I toss in some of my clients’ sites (some have no clue about advertising) - I’ll have quite a list to promote.

Of course, there are site renovations to complete too. In fact, that’s ongoing. I’ve just realized that I can update all the pages I’ve already done last year and at the beginning of this year.

GRIN! The image that comes to mind is of a dog or a fox with a long furry tail chasing that tail and going in tight circles! :) You’ll let me know if you see me doing that, okay?
